Grayne Goggles Stoker - 3 pair Giveaway!
Hi Guys,
To bring in the new year we wanted to do some more STOKING of the SBF community.

Here we go. You can enter this stoker by responding to this thread with a unique number. This STOKER will end on 1-07-14 and then we will choose THREE winners, raffle style. Each of the 3 Winners will be able to select any of our new Grayne GTO or MTN Goggles...and they can choose two accessory lenses. We have been working on these Goggles for a few years now and are so stoked with the result. We love to bring cutting edge tech and quality to the riders at a price (in the case of these goggles - $49.95) that will help real riders get into and enjoy the sport. Note: Goggles are lightweight items so we will be happy to ship these to whoever wins, worldwide and as with all of our stokers, free of charge. You can view all of the options and tech here: Great Snowboarding Eyewear and Snowboard Goggles Here are two of the 9 base options: Some Lens change Videos: MTN: GTO: Lens: Spherical, 5X Military Grade Anti-Fog / UV Treatment / Ultra-Hardened Anti-Scratch Protection Fit: Medium/Large Fit Helmet Compatible: Yes Strap: Ultra-Wide, Full Slide-Adjust Silicone Ventilation: Full Frame Protected Ventilation Feature: Quick Snap Lens Release Foam: Full Face Anti-Microbial Ultrafoam

Former ios user for years, using OneX need help coming back..
Sorry for convoluted title, but here is my situation, iphone user for years...left iphoen 4 to go to OneX (worked for AT&T, sold Iphone and wanted to try android since i worked with them forever)
Now that ive had the OneX for about 4 months I keep looking at the iphone5 and really missing a lot of the apps, mostly games on it... i wish the screen was wider, but still, its a great piece of machinery and has a decent amount of seriously good looking games on it that you just cant do on the OneX.... I love the retina display and what it does to the games on ios. That is one thing that i really notice on the OneX However, I use the OneX for movies on the train every day going to work..i like the size of the screen for that. I havent watched movies on the iphone5, but i did with my old iphone 4 and it was fine...so basically im looking for some motivation to help me decide to go to the iphoen 5 or stick with mhy OneX and why? Could really use some advice... thank you |

It seems like you really wanna go back to iOS / iPhone.
Therefore do that. The blackbars on top and bottom are gone now since it's 16:9. Which makes things bigger overall. |

Good to know about the letterboxing, what any great games that are coming out? Id definetely get Infinity Blade 2, but what else is coming down the pipeline that i would definetely want? Doesnt matter what type of genre, more action/adven, rpg, racing but that will make use of the retina display..thanks
Also, one more thing, I think I became spolied with the JB'ing of the past..i became obsessed with themes mostly, not sure how easy it would be to go back to non-theming...unless a JB comes out, but with the difference in graphic performance it might be worth it.... And forgot to say that i hate the 16gb limit (more like 9gb usable) on the OneX...just stupid unless its Intl.. so woudl love a 32gb Iphone 5 if it would be worht it..

Blogs Cliopatria The Biggest Relief Operation in History?
Jan 14, 2005 6:00 amThe Biggest Relief Operation in History?
Paul Reynolds, for BBC News (1-11-05):
It does not detract from the relief operation in Asia to question the title almost routinely given to it as the "world's largest relief operation ever". The huge American undertakings that fed millions of people during and after the World War I rescued not sections of populations but whole peoples. Today they have been largely forgotten.
Yet 10 million people relied on food shipped in during the German occupation of Belgium and Northern France between 1914 and 1918. Tens of millions more were kept alive right across continental Europe after the war. These operations saw nearly 11m metric tons of supplies delivered at a cost of nearly $3bn -- and that is the dollar amount from the time. The US government ended up paying for most of it, though Britain and others did contribute.
In 1921 there was another massive operation to help a further 10 million starving
in the Soviet Union. Even so, an estimated one million people died in that famine.
The common factor in all these operations was a man who later became an American
president reviled for not doing enough during the great depression - Herbert
Between 1914 and 1922, he certainly did something. He got money from governments
and charity, sailed his own fleet which flew his flags, took over railways,
set up a telegraph network, issued his own passports, made treaties with governments,
negotiated safe passages through war zones on land and sea and saved countless
It was not a charity he ran. It was an industry. It was almost a state.

Red List Category & Criteria: | Critically Endangered B1ab(iii,v)+2ab(iii,v) ver 3.1 |
Year Published: | 2008 |
Date Assessed: | 2008-01-01 |
Assessor(s): | Freyhof, J. & Kottelat, M. |
Reviewer(s): | Bogutskaya, N., & Smith, K. (IUCN Freshwater Biodiversity Unit) |
Justification: The species is known only from Lake Kezenoi-am (2.4 km²) in the northern Caucasus where it is being impacted by the introduction of Squalius cephalus, which feeds on its fry. Prior to the introduction of Gobio holurus and Squalius cephalus, S. ezenami was the only fish in the lake. Levels of harvesting are unknown as the area is a war zone (Chechnya). |
Range Description: | Russia: Lake Kezenoi-am (formerly Eizenam (Daghestan)) in northern Caucasus at 1870 m above sea level. In 1963, introduced in Lake Mochokh (Daghestan), probably established. |
Countries: | Native: Russian Federation |
Range Map: | Click here to open the map viewer and explore range. |
Population: | No information. |
Population Trend: | Unknown |
Habitat and Ecology: |
Habitat: Lake Kezenoi-am is a mountain lake, 2.4 km²,with a maximum depth of 74 m,, temperatures about 5°C below 20 m and 5-18°C in upper layers in summer, covered by ice in winter, high oxygen concentrations down to bottom year-round and low plankton density. Spawns in lake, close to underwater springs; large-sized form probably migrates to tributaries. Prior to the introduction of Gobio holurus and Squalius cephalus, S. ezenami was the only fish in the lake. Biology: Lacustrine, migrates to tributaries. Two forms are known: small-size (adults 160-260 mm SL, 200-350 g) and large-size (adults 380-1130 mm SL, over 1 kg). Males reproduce for the first time at two years, females at three. Spawning period extends over almost entire year. Young juveniles feed mostly on gammarids, chironomid larvae; larger juveniles and adults feed on molluscs, benthic invertebrates and fry; largest individuals are mostly piscivorous, especially since the introduction of G. holurus. |
Systems: | Freshwater |
Major Threat(s): | Introduction of alien species (Squalius cephalus), which feeds on its fry. The region is hard to access as it is a war zone (Chechnya) so levels of harvesting are unknown. |

Actually, we were pretty well established in 1998 when we got the swing and all the chairs and tables put on the porch. But we only found out about PPSU from a guest in Sept 2007 ... while sitting around on the porch and talking. So, we have finally got around to joining.
Local 213 will be formally adopting the official Union Rules listed below at our first formal meeting, which we won't get around to having, after a suitable period of debate by our registered membership which we definitely don't have.
But we will be more than happy to talk about it to any potential members ... if it comes up.
Important Issues Discussed
Local 213 has hosted countless discussions about the really important issues of our day.
Defense - Can one hummingbird really keep all the others from feeding at "his" feeder?
Health - Is it more relaxing to rock in the rocking chair or to swing in the swing?
Energy - Why does it take more energy to argue about who will go get more lemonade than it does to just get up and go get it?
Economy - Is it cheaper to pay more less often, or to pay less more often?
Education - Is a kid really smart or really dumb to always pick the nickle from grandfather's hand instead of the dime because the nickle is bigger?

Re: New CTS-V Owner
Car looks really good...very nice photos. What are you shooting with?
Re: New CTS-V Owner
I am using a Canon 60D with 2 YN-560 flashes bare for theses. It started raining of course as soon as I got everything set up.
There are a few spots on the car I want to bring in to get touched up. But of course being life the way it is I got a washer/dryer this weekend so it will have to wait awhile. I am hoping I dont have to get a new bumper but it is what it is I guess.

The Total Solar Eclipse of 3 November 1994. The dark blue region is the path of totality (also known as the umbra).
The umbra shadow travels from west to east (left to right on the map). At the point of greatest eclipse, totality is at local midday. The duration of totality at greatest eclipse is 4 minutes 23 seconds. This occurs in the South Atlantic Ocean. On either side of that point, the duration is less. To the West of greatest eclipse totality will occur before local noon; to the East, the eclipse will be total after local noon. The umbra is widest around the time of greatest eclipse as the surface of the Earth is bulging out towards the Moon in that region.
The blue circlular regions are the positions of the umbra at ten minute intervals. The umbra becomes more circular around the region of greatest eclipse because the angle between the surface of the Earth and the umbra becomes more perpendicular.
The area on either side of the path of totality (in pale blue) provides a partial eclipse, the magnitude decreasing with distance from the path of totality. No eclipse is visible outside the region marked in blue on the map.
The red regions are the areas where the eclipse occurs during sunrise (left) or sunset (right). The sub-solar point is the location where the Sun is overhead at the time of greatest eclipse. This point is well South of the equator during November.
The path of totality begins in the Pacific Ocean, and crosses South America. It then passes into the South Atlantic Ocean and ends in the Indian Ocean (south of Madagascar). The umbra takes 3 hours 11 minutes to traverse its entire path.
The path of totality is the pair of dark lines in the centre, moving across South America from left to right.
In this part of the path the eclipse occurs before local noon. The path travels across the coast of Peru, the extreme north of Chile, Bolivia, Paraguay, the extreme north of Argentina and southern Brazil. It takes about 50 minutes for the umbra to cross this land area.
The circlular regions are the positions of the umbra at ten minute intervals.
The two outer black lines are the path of totality. The line in the middle is the centre line. For any part of the path of totality, the duration of totality is at its longest on this line. The circlular regions are the positions of the umbra at ten minute intervals.
The eclipse site was along the centre of the path of totality very close to Putre.
This is the sky during totality close to our observation location.
The Sun is low as the eclipse was early in the morning. Venus and Jupiter were both visible.
Eclipse Details | |
Location | Zapahuira, Lauca National Park, northern Chile |
Latitude | 18° 19' 53" S |
Longitude | 69° 35' 42" W |
Altitude | 3400m |
Distance from Centre Line | 17 km |
1st Contact (UT - 3) | 08:17 |
2nd Contact | 09:18:35 |
3rd Contact | 09:21:30 |
4th Contact | 10:31 |
Duration | 2m 55s |
Path Width | 173 km |
Major Axis | 286 km |
Minor Axis | 152 km |
Umbral Velocity | 1.4 km/s |
Solar Altitude | 32° |
Solar Azimuth | 97° |
Position Angle: 2nd Contact | 113° |
Position Angle: 3rd Contact | 291° |
Saros Details | 133 (44 / 72) |
Gamma | -0.35216 |
Diameter Ratio | 1.046 |
The Distance from Centre Line was also originally estimated using the map but was updated in 2009 from an interactive map provided by Fred Espenak.
First Contact is the beginning of the eclipse when the first "bite" appears on the Sun's disk; it is the beginning of the partial phase. Second Contact is the beginning of totality. Third Contact is the end of totality. Fourth Contact is the end of the partial eclipse. The times are in local time which, for this eclipse, is UT - 3 (GMT minus three hours).
The Duration of the eclipse at the observation site was just over 2 minutes 55 seconds.
The Path Width is the width of the path of totality. The umbra itself is elliptical in shape. The Major Axis is the longest axis of the umbra; the Minor Axis is the shorter axis. The umbra at the observation site was 286km long and 152km wide. This could be observed as a brighter horizon in two opposing directions along the minor axis. The path width was 173km, a reasonably large figure that produced a dark eclipse.
The Umbral Velocity is the speed of the Moon's shadow, 1.4 kilometres per second. This and its width determined the duration of the total eclipse.
The Sun's Altitude is measured from the horizon; the Azimuth is the direction of the Sun measured clockwise from North. The figures are for mid-eclipse. The Position Angles indicate the exact position of the Sun's disk where the Moon covers and uncovers the Sun at the beginning and end of totality.
The Saros is a collection of eclipses belonging to a series. Each member of the series is followed by a similar eclipse approximately 18 years, 11 days and 8 hours later. This eclipse is a member of Saros number 133. It is the 44th eclipse out of a total of 72 in the series.
Saros 133 began with a small partial eclipse in the Arctic on 13 July 1219. The series produced 12 partial eclipses over a period of 198 years. The 13th eclipse of this Saros (20 November 1435) was annular (as the Moon was too far from the Earth to cover the Sun completely). There were six annular eclipses until the 19th eclipse (24 January 1544) which was the only hybrid eclipse of the series (annular and total over section of its path).
The following 46 eclipses were all total and covered a period of 811 years. The first of these (the 20th of the series on 3 February 1562) had a duration of 0m 41s. The duration of the total eclipses slowly increased until the 36th eclipse on 7 August 1850 which was 6m 50s long. The durations of totality then began to decrease. This eclipse (number 44) had a maximum duration of 4m 23s. The final total eclipse of the series will occur on 21 June 2373 and will have a duration of 1m 24s. After seven partial eclipses in the Antarctic, the series will end on 5 September 2499. Saros 133 will last 1280 years from beginning to end.
Gamma determines how the Moon's shadow, if extended, would pass through the Earth. A Gamma of zero implies that the shadow would pass through the exact centre of the Earth. A Gamma of greater than 1 misses the Earth and no total eclipse would occur. A positive Gamma passes North of the Earth's centre; a negative Gamma passes South of the Earth's centre. The value of Gamma for this eclipse is -0.35216. This means that the shadow passes South of the Earth's centre, about a third of the way to the edge of the Earth. This, combined with the fact that in November, the Southern Hemisphere is tilted towards the Sun, produces an eclipse in the Southern Tropical Zone.
The Diameter Ratio determines how much bigger the Moon's apparent radius is than the Sun's. In this case, the Moon's radius is 1.046 that of the Sun's. A total eclipse can only occur if this figure is greater than 1. The Moon would then appear larger than the Sun and could cover it completely. If this figure was less than one a total eclipse could not occur because the Moon would appear smaller than the Sun.

9/28 Tampa Bay27 - 24 L
The game against Tampa Bay was a tale of missed opportunities and a lack of discipline. Between the dropped balls, missed tackles, penalties, poor throws, unable to run out the clock and what seemed to be a team that started the game thinking this was an easy win was Louis Murphy, the man who was out of a job last week. The same Murphy who helped the Raiders stun Pittsburgh back in 2009 as a rookie with 128 yards and two touchdowns had another career performance yesterday against Pittsburgh including setting up the Bucs with the go ahead score with seconds left on the clock. It only takes one player out of eleven in any phase of the game to effect that group. Seemed yesterday that there was more than one player that missed on opportunities or had a lack in discipline that enabled Tampa Bay to capitalize, thus putting the Steelers at 2-2 to start the first month of the season.

10/5 @Jacksonville17 - 9 W
Some say in the NFL any win is a good win. Masked behind the win was an offense that didn't wake up until 14 minutes left in the first half, a defense who allowed a rookie quarterback making his home debut throwing to two rookie wide receivers and handing off to a rookie running back to hang around until there were 4 minutes left when the Steelers offense took control finally showing that they could run out the clock, on one of the worst defenses in the league (ranked 31st overall). Behind Dick Lebeau's 18-2 record against rookie quarterbacks is a defense that looks very vanilla and were fortunate to go up against a Jags O that was ranked the same as their D (31st). Gone are the corner blitzes, middle lb stunts and the shear fear that the Steelers defense once held throughout the NFL. Ben Roethlisberger may be the best player on the Steelers, but I believe the two headed monster of B squared (Bell and Blount) will prove to be a bigger factor in aiding the defenses success than Ben. The running game has proven to score, run the clock, provide the defense with rest, and keep opposing offenses one dimensional. So if not for a poor throw by a rookie quarterback that turned into 6 for the Steelers we could very easily be looking at another loss. Yes the Steelers were able keep up in the AFC North with a much needed win, but the win revealed that the Steelers still have a lot of work to do on both sides of the ball. Read More.

10/12 @Cleveland31 - 10 L
If you watched the Browns/Steelers games over the past decade you would have thought the two teams swapped uniforms yesterday, however unfortunately for Steeler nation they did not. Although the total yardage and time of possession favored the Steelers, the Browns were in control of the game due to many offensive "splash" plays in which Steeler defenders were either out of position or simply couldn't cover or tackle the tight ends, wide receivers or anyone else wearing a Browns jersey. Yesterday's game once again showed the talent and age of the defense, but most people wanted to talk about the offenses inability to score in the red zone, dropped passes, lack of effort on some parties and proving that Ben is not on the same page with his receivers. There is not a better example of that then his day attempting to connect with wide receiver Markus Wheaton, the same Markus Wheaton that Ben hosted in California in the offseason for throwing sessions. Markus was targeted 11 times with just 4 of those being completed. Most experts believed in the beginning of the season that the defense was going through a transition period with both new acquisitions through free agency and rookies that would need to step into the spotlight, so the onus lied on the offense to pull out games as the defense was able to do years ago. With the Browns taking a 23-3 lead into the half it all but made the Steelers offense one dimensional, and that dimension proved to be lacking in detail and execution. With the offseason activities, preseason and 5 regular season games under their belt one would think those details would be worked out. The game got to a point where you saw a veteran leader in Brett Kiesel walk off the field with an apparent knee injury with two minutes left instead of staying in the sideline to ensure that the team, especially the younger players gave 100% until the clock ran out, and an alleged comment made by the opposing quarterback that he was "a little bored". Coach Tomlin stated after the game that they would have to swallow this one. I would think that after taking it to the chin against Baltimore, losing to the hapless Buccaneers at home in the final seconds and now taking yet another chin shot yesterday, he and the team would be full. The bottom line is that this team is sloppy, undisciplined, and lacking the overall talent to win consecutive games. If this continues, coach Tomlin and/or parts of his staff may be contacting real estate agents by seasons end. Finally, for Todd Haley and his offense, many in Steeler nation think it's a shame that Bruce Arians had to "retire". No Need To Read More.

10/20 Houston30 - 23 W
What is the definition of "soft"? Easily penetrated, divided, not tough or hard. Soft was the topic of discussion all last week leading up to the game last night. Ray Lewis chimed in on what ex-Steeler coach Bill Cowher and ex-Steeler 86 had described this years group as soft and finesse. Lewis stated that when you played the Steeler teams he went head to head with, you needed to bring two chin straps. With the Steelers team today you don't even need one. Those words looked to be proven yet again last night as the Texans ran all over the Steelers in the first quarter on their way to a 13-0 lead. Ben and the offense looked like they were picking up right where they left off last week along with J.J. Watt seeming to be primed to make another case for player of the year consideration with a sack and fumble recovery. Just when you thought this was the beginning of the end not only for the game but maybe the season, the myriad of Boos began to fade as the Steelers reignited themselves and the Heinz Field crowd with maybe the best quarter they have played all year. In a span of 2:54 the Steelers were able to score 24 unanswered points by playing anything but soft on defense as well as finesse on offense. With two turnovers, pressuring Fitzpatrick, corralling Foster and some much welcomed hard hitting, the defense was able to put the offense in position to finally exercise their touchdown demons. The offense led by Roethlisberger, was a vertical, hard running and physical unit that showed what happens when they execute and are on the same page. With touchdown passes to much needed spark in Martavis Bryant and LeVeon Bell, Ben left the other touchdown pass up the man who is usually on the end of them. Brown's pass to Lance Moore in the end zone wasn't as surprising as to realize that he's a southpaw. The Steelers defense was able to hold Foster to 29 yards the remaining three quarters and the offense muscled three field goals in the second half to provide enough cushion to reach win number 4 on the season and extend their Monday Night home game winning streak to 16. Last night has Steeler Nation wondering if this was a turnaround of a season or simply one night. With their next two games, albeit at home, are against division leaders with offenses ranked in the top 5 of the NFL. I would call that two game stretch anything but "soft". Read More.

10/26 Indianapolis51 - 34 W
Efficient is the staple of the Colts offense in what has defined them thus far this season. With Andrew Luck averaging 336 yards per game and ringing up 31 points per game, one would think that the Steelers offense would need to produce a record day to have any chance to become victorious in yesterday's game. The offense did just that. Led by Ben the Steelers manufactured a startling 639 yards of total offense, 522 of those coming from the strong and very accurate arm of number 7. On his way to what may be his best game ever past, present and future, Ben completed an astounding 81 percent of his passes. His passes landed in the end zone 6 times while utilizing nine different receivers to move up and down the gridiron with ease all afternoon. With the defense holding their own and only allowing Luck and company to score 3 points above their game average, they were able to make some splash plays of their own with a pick six and forced safety. You can see that both 99 and 92 are getting into "football" shape as the season goes on, which should help bolster this defense with the return of Shazier and development of Mitchell in this his first year under the Legend of Dick LeBeau. Moving forward the Steelers will need this type of performance from the offense if they want to have an opportunity to reach the tournament at seasons end. One might say the Steelers resembled the Colts of yesteryear when 18 was winning in shootouts. With the Ravens coming to town next week, the Steelers will need to show the same "efficiency" they played with in yesterday's game. Read More.

11/2 Baltimore43 - 23 W
It was the game that Joe Greene chose to retire his jersey. A game that everyone knew was going to resemble a back alley brawl pitting the Ravens against the Steelers. A game fitting for the era that #75 dominated. The game itself and more importantly the Steelers did not disappoint. It was hard hitting, penalty laden and at times bone crushing. In the midst of the chaos last night were two special performances by players that at the beginning of the season were heading in opposite directions. How does #7 follow up a 6 touchdown game against the colts you may ask? Well he throws 6 more to five different receivers. In a game where the running game could not budge arguably the best front seven in football, Ben took the offense, tossed it like a sack filled with some very talented young wide receivers over his shoulder and ventured through the Ravens secondary as if he were on vacation in the Alps. He was in such a zone that not even a cheap shot by Upshaw or trash talking by Suggs was going to impede the rhythm he had found in the second quarter that carried he and the offense throughout the balance of last night's showdown with the NFL's top five ranked defense. Then you have a guy who at the beginning of the year was sitting on a couch until just after week three, of the regular season. James Harrison not only showed flashes of his former MVP self, he also had Joe Flacco seeing flashbacks of earlier years when 92 wreaked havoc on his blind side. His two sacks does not come close to the impact he had on Flacco and the Ravens offense. A night where Pittsburgh, not just the Steelers, were celebrating one of the greatest defensive players of all time. Flacco began looking rattled with a minute left to go in the first half where James and company carried that wave of terror into the third quarter and beyond. With Cortez Allen eating popcorn, watching on the sidelines and 43 out with a knee injury, the younger guys and backups proved their mettle and held Steve Smith to 36 yards receiving. In fact, no Ravens receiver was able to capture the century mark against this spunky secondary which was helped by a relentless pass rush led by 36 year old James Harrison. The Steelers sit in second place of the division at 6-3. The next two weeks of games scheduled within the division could prove beneficial for the Steelers to leap over Cincinnati. If they continue to play the way they have as of late, it will make even "Mean" Joe, well... happy. Read More.

11/9 @NY Jets20 - 13 L
Expectations are a common trend in the NFL. We as fans expect good food and fun at the tailgate festivities, high prices inside the stadium, a loud and frenzy crowd, NO Justin Bieber, and arguably the hottest team in football to be victorious against a 1 and 8 team who had lost 8 straight. All but two happened in yesterday's sad portrayal that was the Steelers and Jets. The Steelers started off slow which was expected since they have done so for the better part of the season. The Jets were able to grab a 17-0 lead by the end of the first quarter by controlling the ball for just under 11 minutes and capitalizing on an Antonio Brown mishap at the Steelers 20. We expected the Steelers O to arise from their sleep in the second quarter but those hopes fell into the waiting arms of Jaiquawn Jarrett at the 2 yard line thus ending what looked to be a momentum changing drive for the Steelers. From that point on the Steelers simply couldn't recover the swag they had displayed over the past three weeks. Giving the ball away 4 times to a team who was able to swipe it a mere 3 times all season proved to be too much for this Steelers team to overcome, against a 1-8 team. With missed opportunities on defense as well as the shortest field goal of the season (23 yards), one could have suggested that the Steelers believed they could simply show up and the Jets would roll over. That didn't happen. Michael Vick looked like his old self rushing for 39 yards and providing just enough in the passing game to help his Jets shock not only the Steelers but also every analyst that called this win for the Steelers a lock, which by happenstance was every analyst in the business. We expected Ben to take advantage of the worst secondary in the NFL giving way to 24 TD passes this season but that was not to be. The Steelers have had their issues against Teams they were expected to beat and that formula doesn't change next week as they go head to head in Nashville against a 2-7 team with ties to Pittsburgh in Ken Whisenhunt. So blame yesterday's game on parity, the Steelers preparation, their lack of execution, Mike Tomlin, Haley's hat or the Steelers offense. I blame "The Biebs". Read More.

11/17 @Tennessee27 - 24 W
The Steelers were desperate to wash away the taste of last week's sickening loss that left many in Steelers nation queasy with the knowledge that a defeat such as this could come back to haunt them when the tournament comes calling. Facing a 2-7 Titans team still looking for an identity and quarterback posed yet another opportunity for the Steelers to prove that they could overcome their difficulties against not only teams with subpar records but also playing away from the comfort of Heinz Field. Steeler Nation did their part by exhibiting once again why they are the best fans in football, or any sport for that matter. The amount of terrible towels amidst the sea of blue was a tribute to the belief still left in this years squad. How would the Steelers show their affection? By kicking....or should I say running it old school. Le'Veon Bell stole the show by surpassing 200 yards running along with the first running touchdown this offense had produced since September 21, yes I said September 21. The Steelers were able to get an early lead by a heavy dose of 26 and a misguided pass by the rookie QB that fell into the arms of William Gay who saw nothing but open green on his way to music row and a 10-0 lead. The Titans were able to settle down with the coaching of Ken Whisenhunt and Ray Horton, once up and coming coaches within the Steelers organization. With the rookie QB playing anything like a rookie coupled with the never ending blitz packages imposed by Horton and his group of no names, the Titans were able to capture the lead just before half on a play that they knew would work against an aggressive Steeler who had given his team a pick six on the Titan's first offensive series. William Gay stepped in front of Nate Washington on a Hook pattern with 44 seconds left in the half, only problem was that 85 did not run a hook. The double move allowed Mettenberger to throw the pigskin anywhere along the left sideline since Gay was too busy looking for his jock strap to recover. The end result was an 80 yard touchdown for the ex-Steeler that changed the momentum and pulse of the game. The Titans offense lead by Mettenberger followed up with an impressive second series in the third quarter when they drove seamlessly down the field, connecting with Chase Coffman three times including a four yard touchdown that increased the lead to 11. How would the Steelers respond? With 3:51 left in the third quarter they were able to exercise their demons and go on a rampage that saw the offense score 14 unanswered points, all coming in the fourth quarter. Ben Roethlisberger may not have had his best game statistically, but with his third down scramble to keep the scoring drive alive, constant recognition of the blitz packages and his ability not only to locate his "hot" reads but also run 26 away from the overloaded blitzes, he captained the offense around and over the Titans defense. That left one Le'Veon Bell, the light footed bulldozer that didn't need to go around or over the Titans defense, he simply went through them. Bell ran for a Steeler Monday Night record 204 yards and was the catalyst behind one of the most impressive and imposing clock killing series fans have seen since the rough and tumble days of the bus. With 6:58 left in the game, Bell handles the ball 8 times and dozed his way to providing his team with their seventh win of the season. The Steelers go into a well needed bye week and hope to have 5 defensive starters back on the other end heading into a week 13 matchup against the Saints. The days of the "Bus" are gone forever, but I like the present and future of the "Bulldozer". Read More.

BYE Week 12 Bye ** * * *
Seems like many in Steelers Nation wanted to talk about Blount's release. The rumors went rampant about his childish antics and selfish attitude. With his New England acquisition just hours after clearing waivers raised several questions. Did he plan this? Did his agent have conversations with Patriots' management prior to his tantrum in Nashville? In any case Blount found his way into the end zone twice today and showcased yet another childish move that had marked him ever since he became a Steeler. He portrayed an end zone dance perfected by 84 that was anything but. He stated after that the celebration was a tribute to Antonio although it seems that he disgraced the dance rather than pay homage to it. His apology via Twitter seemed to be influenced by the PR team of the Patriots than that of someone who was fed up with the Steelers thus turning his back on teammates who trusted him. He didn't leave due to money. He didn't leave because he was such a competitor. He left because he was selfish. This situation forced me to pose a question.
So what is a Steeler? A Steeler is a man Tried and true, A man who carries the job all the way through. Men who leave their ego behind, Men who stand side by side. Men who believe in one another, Men who will fight for their brother. A Steeler wants for just one thing, and that is only to win a ring. A Steeler will never fold or kneel, for they are men made of Steel.
11/30 New Orleans35 - 32 L
"That would seem unlikely to happen"
A phrase all too familiar for Steeler fans as they had to endure those words with losses to a Tampa team who can't seem to get out of their own way to win and a Jets team with their QB carousel and poor coaching, both whom are bottom feeders in their respective division. Yesterday provided multiple examples as the 4-7 Saints limped into Heinz field, losers of three straight with all three losses coming in the bayou. The Steelers on the other hand came into the game after a bye week that saw some key players becoming healthy at the right time for the push down the stretch. They were riding high after being victorious against the Titans, a win that saw the emergence of the "bulldozer" as Bell dozed his way to 204 yards on the ground. One would have thought that the Steelers would gas up the dozer and allow him to beat his mark from the previous game considering New Orleans was ranked 31 in total defense along with issues stopping the run in the recent weeks. While the Saints started out the game the way many expected, the Steelers were able to move the ball early with 26 but managed only a couple of field goals for their efforts. Things turned in the middle of the second quarter when Brees and the Saints caught fire. Number nine connected with 9 different receivers on his way to a 5 touchdown day. With two leaders back on defense for the Steelers, the expectations of adding that spark to that side of the ball were imminent, so we thought. The spark soon fizzled as Brees led two impressive drives before the half to take a 14-6 lead. The Saints defense provided their own spark early in the second half. What does a defense do to improve their chances of winning? Hope that Mike Adams starts at right tackle. He looked like a football sled most of the day as the defensive ends continuously pushed Him back into Ben. On this particular play they were able to get close enough to 7, bat his pass up in the air and bear hug it before it landed onto the turf of the ketchup bottle. That led to a touchdown pass to Al Toon's son Nick, who scored his first career touchdown in the span of three years. Yes I said three years. That wasn't the most disappointing moment of that touchdown. He was able to escape both of the defensive sparks in Taylor and Polamalu. Taylor couldn't corral the young receiver as Troy whiffed on the play. This defense has the philosophy of bend don't break. It was apparent today that the defense was broken far too many times for the Steelers to overcome. They were playing catchup (no pun intended) the whole second half, thus unable to get the dozer going on the ground the way one would have anticipated. Ben was off when it counted as his passes soared a bit too high for receivers seemingly open with the opportunity to extend multiple drives. Brees' impressive performance was aided by his top offensive weapon, wait no it wasn't. 80 had zero catches with no yards or touchdowns. In fact he wasn't even targeted all game. The closest he came to catching the ball was during the onside kick as the ball whizzed pass his mitts. On this day it was a 2013 fifth round pick out of Oklahoma. Kenny Stills had a career day and assisted in ending the hopes of the Steelers recording their eighth win of the season. With four games to go, including two against the Bengals, one of which is scheduled for next week the Steelers had better find a way to play consistent, "cohesive" football. If they cannot, Steelers Nation will be uttering another all too familiar phrase. Report Card.
"No playoffs again this year"

12/7 @Cincinnati42 - 24 W
With the Steelers having a 2-4 record when playing 1 o'clock games, Steelers Nation was hoping this team would not get off to a slow start against a Bengals team that can light up the scoreboard with both the run and pass, thus forcing the Steelers to play catchup yet another week. The first 6 series of the game combined for 0 points and barely a first down. The Bengals, attempting to spark their O by faking a punt, saw their hopes fumble back to the Steelers who were not fooled by the smoke and mirrors. The defensive grip finally began to loosen in the second quarter. Ben lead an impressive drive ending when the chant of "H-e-e-e-a-a-a-t-h" could be heard after his 1 yard touchdown catch.
The Bengals then went on a 14-0 run of their own aided by their top wide out in A.J. Green, who past the century mark with over 4 minutes left to go in the first half. The Steelers were able to net a field goal just before the clock ran out on yet another impressive 12 play drive. Going into the half the Bengals had the edge 14-10 and were ready to pounce on the Steelers knowing they were getting the ball first to start the second half. The third quarter though saw both teams trade touchdowns, but it was the Bengals touchdown that made the Bengal fans roar and gave the Steelers fans on hand a cause of great concern. A.J. Green was able to blow by the secondary on his way to an 81 yard touchdown and 200 total yards on the afternoon. The score was now 21-17. This was a point in the game that you ask yourself if this team can stick together and pull out a road win that they were expected to lose. I go back to what defines a Steeler. These men proved they were made of steel. They may have bended a bit, but they never broke. The offense led by number 7 hooked up the dozer, relied on 84 and capitalized on the talents of a rookie wide receiver to go over and through the jungle on their way to a crushing 25-0 run in the fourth quarter. Part of the surge was a 94 yard touchdown pass to that rookie wr Martavis Bryant who showed he has some wheels to go along with his size. The offense line also played a significant role in keeping 7 clean this afternoon. Mike Adams redeemed himself from last week's performance. The defense, without the likes of 99 and 92 showed their mettle by capitalizing on a shaky hand off while shutting down Dalton and his array of weapons in the 4th quarter to preserve the 42-21 skinning of the cats. Hopefully this team can use the momentum as they head south for a confrontation against the man with two first names (Matt Ryan) and his Falcon team who have had their own Jekyll and Hyde type of season. The Steelers know that they need to take one game at a time but understand that the season could come down to the game on the 28th against the same team they handled today, only this time I expect these cats won't go down without a fight. At least for today and this victory I can sense a certain chin protruding with pride in a CBS studio while whispering under his breathe as his team provides the highlights to this game, "Who Dey? We Dey!" Report Card.

12/14 @Atlanta27 - 20 W
The Dome in the ATL was rocking as the Steelers visited Matt Ryan and company. Both teams needed a win to remain in the hunt for postseason play. Steeler Nation had a large presence as a sea of Terrible Towels could be found throughout the stadium. Mike Tomlin stressed during the week the need to start fast, especially playing away from home against a team that has proven to have the ability to light up the scoreboard. That's exactly what the Steelers did, well at least faster than Atlanta. The Steelers tallied two field goals in a first quarter that saw a total of three possessions. The start of the second quarter provided what might have been the pivotal moment of the game. William Gay, a man who is known for gambling came up with a full house as he turned a Ryan pass into six points for the Steelers who were able to jump to a 13-0 lead. The Falcons were able to answer with a little over four minutes left in the half with an 85 yard drive that was aided by a roughing the passer penalty and a dart thrown to Devin Hester who was filling in for a hobbled Julio Jones. The Steelers had their own response with an impressive drive of their own. They went 12 plays for 80 yards and a goal line rushing TD by the dozer that was set up by an acrobatic catch by one of the best in Antonio Brown. The Steelers took a 20-7 lead into the locker room. The Falcons needed to make a statement offensively with the first possession of the second half but could only muster 3 as the Steelers defense bowed their necks and forced their hand to kick close to the end zone. After stiffening again on Atlanta's next possession to force a second field goal of the third quarter, the Steelers offense went back to work at the beginning of the fourth quarter ending with a 13 yard TD run by the dozer on a counter power play that has seemed to be the bread and butter of this offense in recent weeks. Ryan and company were able to find the end zone again to diminish the lead to 7 with ten minutes left to go. That's when Ben and the offense were able to own the time of possession and run the clock out with a four minute drive finished by a gutsy 3rd and 1 pass play to Heath Miller to seal the deal. Berger was efficient completing close to 80 percent of his passes with the majority soaring to 84 who had yet another stellar performance. What Bell couldn't do on the ground he did through the air proving he just might be the best all around back in the NFL today. Although Matt Ryan was not sacked, the Steelers D were able to get ample pressure on the savvy vet and force poor passes and choices throughout the afternoon. The Steelers were a focused team with the postseason on their minds. With the Chiefs headed to the ketchup bottle next week, losers of 3 out their last 4 and an eye on the tournament, the Steelers will need to be focused to get off to a fast start in order to have an opportunity for win number 10 and a shot at the division title.

Coming into this afternoon the Chiefs had earned a reputation as the best red zone defense in the NFL. Knowing this Mike Tomlin challenged his defense all week and continually asked one question that dug into the nerves of each player, "Who will rush for more yards? 25 or 26?" This dig resonated with them all week as they prepared for their biggest test yet, and the playoffs were the ultimate prize. You win, your in. The Steelers defense without Troy or Ike did more than step it up, they turned back the clock and showed a glimpse of yesteryear. It wasn't just the 6 sacks, 1.5 registered by 92 who has seemed to find the fountain of youth, the steel wall that Charles ran into on 4th and 1, or the forced fumble that helped shift the momentum once again in favor of the hometown boys. It was more about the energy of this defense, the way they carried themselves from start to finish. The hits were harder, the tackles surer, the splash play non existent. Even with Alex Smith's 300+ yards on the day, it seemed that every time the Chiefs receivers grabbed one out of the air, there were countless black jerseys attacking the ball. The Chiefs, who had been unable to crack the goal line with the pigskin tucked securely in the arms of a wide receiver all season appeared to come to an end until Antwon Blake reached in and pulled what little sliver of hope Bowe had to catch his and the Chiefs first touchdown pass away. Offensively for the Steelers, It appears that Todd and 7 have really hit their stride down this last stretch of the regular season. A multitude of credit should be showered unto Todd, who devised many innovative plays to put this offense in successful situations that simply required execution, and the O did just that. With two touchdowns in the red zone, including the first rushing touchdown given up by the Chiefs defense all season, the Steelers were able to move the ball up and down Heinz Field led by an efficient Ben Roethlisberger and big games by 84 and H-e-e-e-a-a-a-t-h. The biggest play of the game, however, didn't come from the offense or defense, it didn't ring up any points on the scoreboard for the Steelers. It was a field goal attempt, a chip shot as they call it that could have been a big blow to the Steelers. If William Gay doesn't go back into coverage on the fake attempt, he gets hooked and Kelce has an easy stroll into the end zone. The Chiefs did eventually get 3 but the wind was taken right out of their sails as the special teams held up their end in swarming the Chiefs returners all game and negating any big plays. Finally, Mike Tomlin, determined to end the playoff drought let it all out on the field today. He could be seen coaching up the defensive backs as well as bringing energy to the sidelines and even at times, Heinz Field. This early Christmas present to Steeler Nation was comprised of a full team effort, both on the field and sidelines. Let's hope the Steelers can keep this momentum and take it into next week against the cats of Cincinnati at Heinz Field. Do so and they will run away with the Division and a first round playoff game in the Steel city. Oh, speaking of running, Charles, 29 Bell-dozer, 63. Report Card.

In last nights game for the division, three Steelers stole the show. One is among the top echelon of his position within the NFL while the balance of last night's trio are unsung heroes. Antonio Brown accounted for more than half of the points the Steelers tallied last night. Brown got the scoring started by returning the cat's punt 71 yards. 84 completely bailed on the schemed blocking plan and set himself up for success by luring Cincy's punt team to one side of the field and turning on a dime to blow past the opponent on the other side of the gridiron while setting up the final block by utilizing (shoving) Shamarko Thomas' blocking expertise to spring him into the end zone.
Both Antwon Blake and Brice McCain were working on their second opportunities with a new team. With their tremendous contributions last night they along with a secondary mostly comprised of backups, held the cat's offense intact through much of the contest. A.J. Green was held under the century mark and was unable to make the splash play on this night as was the case in the previous meeting. It seemed every time Andy Dalton wanted the homerun, either 25 or 41 was with Green step for step. Those two alone accounted for three turnovers that was simply too much for Cincy to overcome. Ben, even though feeling under the weather and missing warmups prior to the game was still the Ben we all have come to know by completing 60 percent and compiling 317 yards and 2 touchdowns all the while finishing the regular season tied for the most passing yards in the NFL. His favorite target Antonio Brown finished the game as he started, with a touchdown. This time he was on the receiving end of a Roethlisberger pass in which no one, not even those two could explain what exactly they were orchestrating. Nonetheless, Brown made a great grab and scurried while shoving yet another teammate to the turf on his way to the 63 yard scamper that all but drove the final nail in the cat's coffin. Nothing was going to get into 84's way of the division or becoming the leading receiver in yards, not even his teammates.
The Steelers prize for winning the division is a first round home playoff game against the crows of Baltimore. Hopefully 26 can find a healing tree and help aid this team to victory, if not then give the ball to 84 and stay out of his way, just ask Shamarko and Spencer Lanning what happens when you don't.

In a game the offense needed to score touchdowns, they had to settle for field goals, four of them. Statistically this was a typical day at the office for 7 and 84, however, the red zone demons rose from week's past to haunt the Steelers in a game that was sure to be high scoring due to the fact that LeBeau's defense was allowing 23 points per game. The loss of the Belldozer was a crushing blow that forced the Steelers offense to become one dimensional. The Crows on the other hand made their 3 possessions in the first half count by ringing up points on two of those possessions and taking a 10-9 lead into the half. The Baltimore D hassled 7 all night forcing two crucial INTs and sacking him 5 times. The Steelers D had an issue with 3rd down conversions all night, particularly down the stretch surrendering too many third and long situations thus keeping their group between the white lines and turning the field position in the favor of the Crows throughout the contest. Flacco was "Joe cool" on this night throwing for 2 touchdowns and zero INTs while directing his team to 30 on the board that counts. The Steelers fought all game but could only muster 17 points which proved to be a tough crow to swallow. With the season now at its end Steelers Nation should take solace in the fact that not only did this team make the playoffs but did so by winning the division and hosting in the first round of this season's tournament. This was the same team that many including myself were unsure of the coaches state of employment, especially after losing to teams like Tampa Bay and New York. We saw a team that stuck together, improved in all phases and showed glimpses of a bright future. Looking ahead, if this is the end of the road for 43, he will leave a legacy for all safeties across the NFL for in my humble opinion he is the best in the business. He was fierce, fast, relentless and possibly the smartest at his position. The way he handled himself both on and off the field is nothing short of a true hall of famer, but the yellow jacket is clothing that Troy couldn't care less to wear for he has worn his hall of fame suit for the past 12 seasons. If you researched the term "Steeler" in the dictionary, you would unveil this.

Because You're Ugly: WWE Father's Day Package
Want to send a message to dad that you think he's a steroid-abusing drunk? Got twenty-five bucks? Boy, do we have the gift for you.
In the embarrassing tradition of John Cena valentine T-shirts for women, and "Get Lit for the Holidays" tees featuring the company logo in Christmas lights (yes, I'm the proud owner of that one), Vince McMahon's marketing gurus once again try to go the Hallmark route. So you have a T-shirt that says you're the WWE's best dad, and a six-pack cooler so you can get drunker than Stone Cold to celebrate that fact.
Listen, if I had a kid, I admit, I'd be prouder than hell to get this as a gift. But here's the problem: guys who wear wrestling T-shirts like this one have enough trouble getting dates, let alone having children. Trust me, I know.

Kyrie Irving scored 35 points, including 13 in the final 2:52, as the Cleveland Cavaliers stunned the Oklahoma City Thunder, 115-110, on Saturday night.
One night after saying he was ''disinterested'' during a loss in Detroit, Irving was simply spectacular down the stretch. He single-handedly closed out one of the NBA's best teams, making his last five shots and showing why he's an All-Star at 20. Irving's biggest shot was a 3-pointer with 42 seconds left to make it 113-108.
Kevin Durant scored 32 points and Russell Westbrook had 28 for the Thunder, who came in 35-11 and with the league's best road record. Durant left briefly in the third quarter with an apparent back injury.
Marreese Speights scored 21 points, including eight straight in the fourth when Cleveland's reserves opened a lead.

Pescadero Lagoon Science Panel
An independent science panel was formed in early 2013 to evaluate the physical and biological characteristics of the Pescadero lagoon and marsh ecosystem and to consider recommendations regarding future management actions there. Specifically, the panel is charged with reviewing existing literature and data related to the Pescadero system and similar coastal estuarine systems. From this literature and data review, they will draw conclusions about how the Pescadero marsh and lagoon ecosystem is functioning.
The science panel consists of the following seven independent and outside experts:
- John Largier, Ph.D., expert in Estuarine/Lagoon Physical Processes from the University of California, Davis (UCD) Bodega Marine Lab
- Ivano Aiello, Ph.D., a Marine Geologist from Moss Landing Marine Lab
- Benjamin Bostick, Ph.D., a Sediment Chemistry Specialist from Columbia University
- David Jacobs, Ph.D., expert in Estuary Biology from the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA)
- Jessie Lacy, Ph.D., expert in Estuarine/Lagoon Physical Processes from the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS)
- Celine Pallud, Ph.D., a Sediment Chemistry expert from the University of California, Berkeley
- Mark Stacey, Ph.D., an expert in Estuarine/Lagoon Physical Processes from the University of California, Berkeley
The formation of this science panel is a joint project of California State Parks, the California Department of Fish and Wildlife, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's Restoration Center and National Marine Fisheries Service, Southwest Region.
The Pescadero lagoon and marsh ecosystem is within Pescadero State Beach and Pescadero Marsh Natural Preserve and is managed by the California Department of Parks and Recreation

On Sept. 11, 2012, the eleventh anniversary of the 9/11 terrorist attacks, terrorists attack the U.S. Consulate in Benghazi and then a nearby "annex" used by the CIA.
At 4:05 p.m. that day, a State Department email informed the White House that the U.S. diplomatic mission in Benghazi was being attacked. At 5:00 p.m. that day, as the attack was unfolding in Benghazi, Obama met with Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta. The terrorists would eventually kill four Americans in Benghazi. Two of them -- former Navy Seals Tyrone Woods and Glen Doherty -- were killed seven hours after the State Department first told the White House the attack was underway.
On Sept. 16, 2012, five days after the Benghazi attack, the U.S. Ambassador to the U.N., Susan Rice, said on national television that the attack grew out of a spontaneous reaction to an anti-Muslim video posted on YouTube.
On Sept. 25, 2012, two weeks after the attack in Benghazi, Obama spoke at length in the U.N. General Assembly about the YouTube video.
On Nov. 6, 2012, Obama was re-elected president of the United States.
On Nov. 9, 2012, CIA Director Petraeus resigned because an FBI investigation discovered he had had an extramarital affair with biographer Broadwell.
At a briefing on Tuesday, Nov. 13, White House Press Secretary Jay Carney told reporters that no one had informed the president that his CIA director was under investigation until Wednesday -- the day after the presidential election.
